One of the more interesting players to watch on the Las Vegas Raiders’ 2026 roster will be second-year wide receiver Jack Bech.

The 2025 second-round pick had an up-and-down rookie season and frankly, it was probably more disappointing than anything. He had just 20 catches for 224 yards all season.

Yet, the Raiders’ leadership have stated their belief in Bech and he should get a chance to earn a lot of playing time in 2026 since the team hasn’t made a lot of major additions to the wide receiver position.

So, Bech’s progress in 2026 will be a big storyline...

Vita Vea wearing the Silver and Black?

Yes, please. That’s the sentiment of the Las Vegas Raiders’ fan base. We recently asked our readers would they want the Raiders to pursue Vea, the star defensive tackle of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in a recent post. The results were overwhelmingly in favor of the idea. That is not surprising, Vea is a special player who would help the Raiders immensely and he has ties to key members of the organization.

So, while Vea would be a good fit for the Raiders, a lot would have to happen for the Buccaneers to...

The Las Vegas Raiders’ 2021 season was unforgettable for so many reasons.

Perhaps lost in the chaos of the Jon Gruden email scandal and Henry Ruggs arrest and release was a historic on-field performance by then third-year pass-rusher Maxx Crosby. He was simply brilliant, especially when it counted.

A recent X post by NFL researcher was a reminder of just how special Crosby was in his third NFL season, especially when it counted the most. Crosby had 46 quarterback pressures on both third and fourth downs. It was the second highest amount in those situations ever in the NFL. Here...

The Maxx Crosby trade rumors haven’t stopped, as he’s clearly the hottest commodity on the Las Vegas Raiders’ roster heading into training camp. Of course, being in the “slow news period” of the NFL calendar leads to a lot of hypothetical trades that don’t mean much. But the one below that was proposed by 105.3 The Fan’s (a popular radio station in Dallas) Bryan Broaddus caught my attention: the Raiders send the Dallas Cowboys Maxx Crosby for wide receiver George Pickens and a first-round pick.

So, does Broaddus’ proposal make sense for both sides?

**Why the Raiders would take the...

The first class for general manager Tom Telesco and head coach Antonio Pierce, would turn out to be their only draft at the helm of the Raiders as well. The class has started to build rather deep roots for the Raiders, with good talent in the first three rounds and a few picks later on, but the Raiders could improve on a couple spots.

A fun idea I had was a re-draft, but not any re-draft that just picks the best player, I wanted to re-draft the Raiders for 2020 but use the same positions at each selection. For example...

If you need a Raiders’ fix before the team begins raining camp in a few weeks, this is your chance.

There will be a big Las Vegas Raiders’ presence at the The American Century Championship in South Lake Tahoe, Nevada at Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course. It runs Wednesday thru Sunday, including practice rounds. It is cosnsidered one of, if the not the top, celebrity golf tournament in the world every year.

It’s a beautiful and extremely relaxed setting where fans can get up close and personal with A-list sports and entertainment stars. Like most years, Lake Tahoe will be teaming...

Yes, it’s the dead period for the NFL, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t anything to talk about.

Recently, CBS Sports had a hypothetical trade proposal, sending Minnesota Vikings star wide receiver Justin Jefferson to the Las Vegas Raiders for a first and third round pick.

The proposal Jefferson will seek to leave Minnesota by the 2028 offseason.

Again, this is all a proposed trade and there is no substance to it. But that doesn’t mean Jefferson won’t get to the point where he will want to leave the Vikings.

If Fernado Mendoza is the real deal and the Raiders...

The Las Vegas Raiders revamped the quarterback room in 2026, adding Kirk Cousins and drafting Fernando Mendoza. Mendoza is the hope for Raider Nation, as he aims to turn around the franchise after years of losing.

Of course, fans want an update on his success and how quickly he can develop. On the Carr brothers’ Home Grown Podcast, David Carr spoke with QB coach Mike Sullivan about his development and was pleased with what he heard.

“It’s a process… That’s basically what the conversation was like… [Sullivan] is going to be right there with Fernando every day digging into...

Weighing in at 335 pounds, Benito Jones is one of the heaviest players on the Las Vegas Raiders roster. And that’s a good thing.

The 6-foot-1 defensive tackle provides the requisite mass to both draw attention from multiple blockers and be a run-stuffing presence in the middle of the Silver & Black defensive line as a nose tackle. Brought onto the roster on May 13 after the team waived fellow nose tackle Brodric Martin, Jones brings valuable experience as a starting defensive tackle in the NFL — he spent time with both the Miami Dolphins and Tennessee Titans in his...

The Las Vegas drafted two wide receivers last season who got a chance to see the field in 2025. Fourth-round pick Donte Thornton Jr. got to see the field the most, but his lack of production led to him falling down the depth chart by the end of the season.

Thornton Jr. was always a project from Tennessee. While he had an impressive athletic profile, Thornton Jr.’s route-running skills were raw. However, this offseason, John Spytek added two more receivers to the mix, both of whom have the speed to win over the top. Jalen Nailor and Malik Benson could...
